If you're looking for a full-size, light-duty truck, the new 2020 Ford F-150 is certainly at the top of your list. For more than four decades, Ford F-Series trucks have confidently reigned supreme as the best selling vehicles in the U.S. Offering superior performance, connectivity, technology, and style, Ford F-150 trucks are designed to meet every driver's needs.

On the other hand, the new 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 has turned heads and brandished the attention of truck buyers. However, when you compare the two trucks head to head, which truck leads the way? Let's take a closer look at the head-to-head between the 2020 Ford F-150 vs 2020 GMC Sierra 1500. Don't hesitate to reach out to the team at Buster Miles Ford in Heflin, AL to get more up close and personal with the F-150.

Performance: 2020 F-150 vs 2020 Sierra 1500

When it comes to engines and performance, both trucks offer you an array of options. However, the Ford F-150 boasts more of the boat-moving, off-roading, rock-crushing, fast-lane-driving performance you need. While the GMC Sierra 1500 produces a max of 420 HP, the Ford F-150 dwarfs this number by 30 HP and produces up to 450 HP.

If you're looking to tow a boat or other toys, you'll be best suited with the F-150's max towing capacity of 13,200 pounds. In contrast, the GMC Sierra 1500 doesn't make the cut with only a 12,500-lb. towing capacity. As an added bonus, the F-150 delivers a higher payload hauling capacity at 3,300; while the GMC Sierra 1500 only musters up 2,250 pounds.

Towing Technology: GMC Sierra 1500 vs Ford F-150

One of the truly unique attributes of the Ford F-150 is its innovative suite of towing technology. While the GMC Sierra does include a class-leading number of camera views, the Ford F-150 includes an exclusive Pro Trailer Backup System. This state-of-the-art system makes getting hitched up and on your way easier than ever.

Once you have entered a few measurements into the system, the Pro Trailer assist camera actively tracks the position of the trailer as you're in reverse. Then you simply turn the knob situated on your dashboard in the direct direction you would like the trailer to go. And while you're doing so, the system instinctively controls your steering wheel. It's just that simple.

Safety: 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 vs 2020 Ford F-150

Both trucks offer you access to a range of innovative safety technology and driver-assistive features. The F-150, however, leads the way with the Ford Co-Pilot 360 — the most advanced standard suite of driver-assist technologies out of all of the brands. With the Ford Co-Pilot 360, you'll more confidently be able to navigate crowded streets and highways with technologies like:

• Lane-Keeping System
• Auto High-Beam Headlamps
• Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert and Trailer Coverage
• Rear View Camera
• Pre-Collision Assist with Auto Emergency Braking

Although the GMC Sierra 1500 does offer safety technologies, it doesn't compare with the F-150. This may begin to explain why the F-150 received the highest overall safety rating of 5 Stars by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The GMC Sierra 1500 only received a dismal 4-Star rating.
